Campaigning today in Florida, John McCain once again said the fundamentals of our economy are strong. While that is a position to be debated by economists who know way more about this topic than I do, I’d just like to point out that from a campaigning and messaging perspective, that’s probably not a soundbyte McCain wants hitting the airwaves. As unemployment continues to rise and the market continues to fall, one would think McCain would hate for voters to think he don’t understand their challenges or feel their pain. Unless he really just doesn’t get it.
